I get some weird looks at the barn when I whip out the rasp, but the money saved and my horse's comfort mean more than weird looks! :)Austenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13004088333430762406noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5677504786349906999.post-60683465455104564662014-03-13T17:26:53.866-04:002014-03-13T17:26:53.866-04:00Bravo for trimming your horse' s feet.

I don't want to learn the intricacies of farrier work, but I do know what a good trim/shoe job look like. I have an AWESOME farrier who is happy to explain his work and the progress made with my boys' feet. I just don't want to do it myself. I am impressed with your ability to keep your boy sound and happy; that must have been a real challenge. Nice job!!!!!!!Bakersfield Dressagehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05571487914424695283noreply@blogger.com
